The Israel Defense Forces announced a four-hour evacuation window for residents of Gaza City on Tuesday, as the Israeli military continues its campaign against what it calls Hamas strongholds. The four-hour window has now passed.
Despite the calls to move south, hundreds of thousands of residents are still in the city and northern Gaza, the enclave's officials said.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu reiterated that there will be no cease-fire in Gaza unless Hamas agrees to release Israeli hostages. The White House said President Joe Biden discussed implementing temporary pauses in fighting with the prime minister in order to create an opportunity for humanitarian aid to enter Gaza.
Netanyahu also said, in an exclusive interview with David Muir, the anchor for ABC News "World News Tonight," that Israel will have to oversee "security responsibility" in Gaza "for an indefinite period" in order to ensure that Hamas cannot carry out large-scale terrorism acts again.
Israeli attacks on Gaza have killed more than 10,000 Palestinians since Oct. 7, according to the Hamas-run Palestinian Health Ministry.
The total number of deaths recorded over the 31 days of fighting is 10,022, including 4,102 children, the ministry said.
Doctors Without Borders reported the death of Mohammed Al Ahel, a laboratory technician for the organization in Gaza, on Nov. 6, during a bombing in the Shati refugee camp. Several members of his family also died in the bombing.
The international charity said Al Ahel had worked with them for more than two years and was at his home when the area was bombed and his building collapsed.
"Our repeated calls for an immediate ceasefire have gone unanswered," the charity said in a statement Tuesday. "But we insist that a ceasefire is the only way to prevent more senseless deaths across Gaza and allow adequate humanitarian aid into the Strip."

The White House on Tuesday reiterated that President Joe Biden does not support an Israeli occupation of the Gaza Strip once the war ends.
Asked about Netanyahu's comments, White House National Security Council spokesman John Kirby said he would leave it to Netanyahu to clarify what he means by having "indefinite" control of Gaza's security.
"There needs to be a healthy set of conversations about what post conflict Gaza looks like and what governance looks like," Kirby told reporters.
"What we absolutely agree with our Israeli counterparts on is what it can't look like, and it can't look like it looked on October 6."
Biden previously said it would be a "mistake" for Israel to occupy Gaza.

The International Committee of the Red Cross said two of its trucks were damaged when a convoy of its vehicles in Gaza came under fire on Tuesday.
The ICRC vehicles were hit as they were transporting vital medical supplies to hospitals and health facilities in the besieged enclave, the aid group said. A driver was lightly wounded.
"These are not the conditions under which humanitarian personnel can work," said William Schomburg, the head of the ICRC sub-delegation in Gaza. Officials did not provide further details on the trucks' location inside Gaza.

The figures are staggering: 50,000 pregnant women in Gaza are unable to access routine maternal health care, 180 women are giving birth there every day, and 5,500 babies have been born since the Oct. 7 Hamas attacks on Israel.
Dr. Natalia Kanem, head of the U.N. agency that promotes reproductive and sexual health, gave those figures at a U.N. press conference Tuesday, where she issued an urgent appeal for fuel for hospitals and incubators, clean water and food for pregnant and lactating women, and for a humanitarian cease-fire.
Kanem said the U.N. has no figures on the number of new mothers or newborns who've died since the war began. But she said, "we have seen losses of life" of newborns in hospitals who need incubators and oxygen which require fuel, adding that being in a hospital is essential for Caesarean section deliveries.
While two truckloads of health and delivery kits and medication have arrived in Gaza, "it's a drop in the bucket" compared to the needs, said Kanem, the executive director of the U.N. Population Fund.
Pregnant women need double the amount of fluid than non-pregnant women, "and if you're a lactating mother, it's triple" — and "brackish water is not a solution," she added.

The White House said President Joe Biden discussed implementing temporary pauses in fighting with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in order to create an opportunity for humanitarian aid to enter Gaza.
The pause in the conflict would also give people who want to leave Gaza through the Rafah border crossing an opportunity to do so.
National Security Council spokesman John Kirby told reporters at the White House that the Biden administration plans to "keep the dialogue going."

The White House said approximately 93 trucks have entered Gaza through the Rafah border crossing in the past 24 hours.
"That brings the total to 569 trucks since Oct. 21 and, as we've said many times before, we know that's not enough. It's a trickle," National Security Council spokesman John Kirby told reporters at the White House.
Kirby added that President Joe Biden discussed accelerating the pace of humanitarian aid into Gaza with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu during a phone call on Monday.

A month on from the Oct. 7 attack by Hamas gunmen that killed 1,400 Israelis, investors are gradually returning to the country's financial markets, warily accepting the descent into its worst security crisis in decades.
Although a significant weakening of the dollar over the last week has helped, Israel's shekel marked a remarkable comeback on Tuesday as it recouped the last of the 5% it lost in the days after last month's atrocities.
The country's stocks and bond prices have been clawing back ground too, although they and the main market gauges of risk aversion such as credit default swaps (CDS) are still flashing warning signs.
"The fact that the fighting is only in Gaza (for now) and not in the north is helping local investors to focus on the (economic) fundamentals," said Yaniv Pagot, head of trading at the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange.

"The Secretary-General reiterates his total condemnation of the acts of terror committed by Hamas in Israel for which there can be no justification," United Nations Secretary-General spokesman Stephane Dujarric in a statement.
"He will never forget the horrendous images of civilians being killed and maimed and others being dragged away into captivity. He reiterates his appeal for their immediate and unconditional release," the statement added.

The Biden administration has previously warned malign actors of taking advantage of the onoing security crisis.

The director-general of the World Health Organization (WHO) on Tuesday called on all parties involved in the Gaza conflict to agree to a humanitarian cease-fire, adding that history will judge their actions.
"How long will this human catastrophe last?", Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus said in a post on social media, noting that the conflict had already killed over 10,000 people, almost half of them children.
"We urge all parties to agree to a humanitarian ceasefire and work toward lasting peace. We again call for the immediate release of the hostages. History will judge us all by what we do to end this tragedy," he said.

Turkey's parliament pulled Coca-Cola and Nestle products from its restaurants over the brands' apparent support for Israel in the ongoing conflict in Gaza, Reuters reported Tuesday.
Without naming the companies in question, Turkey's Grand National Assembly said in a statement that "the products of companies that support Israel will not be sold in restaurants, cafeterias and tea houses in the parliament campus."
A parliamentary source told Reuters that Coca-Cola beverages and Nestle instant coffee were the only products removed from menus.
They added that the decision by Speaker Numan Kurtulmus to ban the brands was in response to a "huge public outcry" against the American brands, which are seen as an extension of U.S. government backing of Israel.
Coca-Cola and Nestle did not respond to CNBC's request for comment on the move.

The IDF did not provide any comment on Monday on the Houthi claims, and CNBC was unable to independently verify the account.

Hundreds of thousands of residents are still in Gaza City and northern Gaza despite Israel's warnings to move south, the enclave's officials said Tuesday as Israel continued its ground advances into the strip.
"No aid has reached citizens in Gaza and the north for 32 days, and no supplies have reached shelter centers or residential neighborhoods," NBC News reported Iyad Al-Bazm, a spokesperson for the Gaza interior ministry and national security, as telling a news conference in Gaza City.

Indonesia's foreign ministry said today that the purpose of the Indonesia Hospital in Gaza was to "fully" serve Palestinians in response to an accusation by the Israeli military that it has been used by Hamas to launch attacks.
"Indonesia Hospital in Gaza is a facility built by Indonesians fully for humanitarian purposes and to serve the medical needs of Palestinians in Gaza," the ministry said in a statement, adding that the hospital is run by Palestinian authorities with the help of a few Indonesian volunteers.
The hospital "is currently treating patients in the amount that far exceeds its capacity," the ministry said.
Sarbini Abdul Murad, chairman of the MER-C voluntary group that funded the Indonesia Hospital, also denied Israel's accusations, saying yesterday that they were a "precondition so that they can attack the Indonesian Hospital in Gaza."

Israeli forces say they struck a building adjacent to the Al Quds hospital in Gaza City, describing the site in a statement as housing "terrorists."
"The attack led to significant secondary explosions which indicate the presence of a Hamas weapons depot in a civilian area," the IDF statement said.
The Palestinian Red Crescent Society (PRCS) wrote on a post on social media site X: "While displaced individuals was trying to obtain drinking water, the IOF shelled a house near Al-Quds Hospital, what compelled the residents to seek refuge in the hospital in a state of fear and panic, especially among the children."
In a separate earlier statement, the PRCS accused the IDF of attacking the area near the hospital Monday night, saying that "(Israel) targeted the vicinity of Al-Quds hospital in the Gaza Strip with two missiles, approximately 50 meters away from the hospital gate."
The IDF says it has repeatedly warned Gaza City residents to move south for their safety, although Israeli airstrikes also continue in the southern half of the enclave.
More than 60% of Gaza's hospitals and medical facilities are now out of service, according to the Palestinian Health Ministry.
